I'd be interested to hear views on McNulty report and the fact that it will imoact on rail workers (of which I am one). I have to say I found the assertion on the BBC website that McNulty thought rail workers are overpaid, a strange one. Yes there are some well paid people on the railway but clerical grades and ticket office workers are not amongst them, yet it is likely from what I read, that this is where the axe will fall.

One possible answer is renationalization which could drive down duplication of costs and remove the so called profit from the railway (which is funded by our taxes anyway). What are the up sides to this? What are the down sides?

All comments welcome.
